Range Rover Classic + Havoc 18 Build

I have a 1991 RRC and am going to install a Ascendant Audio Havoc 18 in 4-5 cubes sealed powered by a SAZ-3000d

HU is an Alpine Ida-X100

Front stage as of now is: 4inch powerbass coax in for real fillage and 4inch PG Tantrum Comps all powered by a JBL 80.4 (60rms x4)

For the car so far i have the whole roof covered in SS damplifier and have filled the gaps between the structural supports and the roof w/ expanding foam... so my roof is pretty sturdy (sounds like mdf when you tap it )

Have also covered the rear lower tailgate with damplifier

I enjoy the sound of pressure

Come on man, you could have at least gotten a decent rack lol. Maybe a Safety Devices if you're lucky enough. If not, RoverRacks make them to their exact specifications. But those are the BEST Range Rovers to date offroad. I just recently got a 2004 Disco SE7 that I plan to put a single IA 21" in.

@ Big Bang, LR's don't rust easily at all. ALOT of their body is made of aluminum. I know this is the case for newer LRs but not so much about the older ones.

wasn't aware of that. But I love LRs for their security. Once you secure lock the newer ones, none of the internal door handles or the internal unlock buttons work. So basically, you can't open ANY doors.

I would take care of it like you said you were before it gets worse, because it will for sure.

Probably was taken off road a lot and got wet and just saturated in there, causing a lot of the rust.

Damp looks good and nice equipment. Subscribed even if I don't like these year Range Rovers.

Yep, the back tailgate has a gasket that leaks and will let water go through the rear lower tailgate and it has been rusting the floor where the water leaks
Thanks!

The rear tailgate is a well known flaw and is about the only exterior part not made of aluminum

Pics of the disco?

The issue of rust in the front of the car is due to a Damm rubberized undercoating DONT BUY THESE

They get water and dirt trapped between the metal and cause rust
